[comp.sys.mac.misc] File Transfer: FTP to UNIX, down to MAC into Soft PC??

rw02@gte.com (Robert Weihmayer) (01/24/91)

I am trying to do the following: to get a .exe MSDOS file from
an FTP site, FTP down to a local UNIX host (in binary mode),
then, using NCSA Telnet, FTP down to my MAC IIcx (with MAC binary
enabled, on both ends), and finally get that .exe file into
SOFT PC on my MAC. 

The problem in that this file locks SOFT PC up and appears to
be broken. Am I missing something? Should I in fact expect this
to work? 
Any help is appreciated. Thanks
